    I’m interested in building long distance outdoor AR as close as possible to an example in this video:
    (2:22-2:30).

    The question is:
    a) Is it possible to build something close to the example with current smartphone technologies? Or are current technologies still inadequate and AR will not be accurate enough to stick with real world object when smartphone will be moving?
    b) If yes, how you would approach it to reach maximum accuracy and stability of AR layer? Technologies, frameworks etc. to recommend?

    Assume we have all information about building we need (as many photos as we want from any distance, 3D model, GPS coordinates...). Viewing distance is 10-100 meters. We can't place any markers on the building.

    If you know about examples of existing long distance AR, it will be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    t.
